SUFFERING HUSBAND
ASKS COURT S HELP
Wife Invests Earnings For
HerselF
PHILADELPHIA PA., Nov. I.
(Special)—A striking example of
•‘Who’s Who in Our House,” or the
fatal mistake of a man entering into
matrimonial relations with a woman
twice his size, possessed of the “Get
Rich Quick” fever, was revealed yes
terday when Joseph Shaffer invoked
the aid of the law to restore to him
his hard-earned coin, the fruits of
many years’ labor, which he alleges
his wife, Milly, has appropriated.
Shaffer claims he has been an “easy
mark” for his better half since he
married her in 1884.
Undoubtedly Mrs. Shaffer is a
shrewd investor. She is also a
stockholder in a number of building
associations.
When the Shaffers started out in
life together, Joseph owned a candy
store at 17 South Mary Street and
had several hundred dollars in cash.
Milly, Shaffer says, had nothing but
her clothes. Five years after their
marriage, Mrs. Shaffer's financial in
stinct asserted itself and backed up
by her superior physical ability she
backed him under the sink with the
rest of the pipes.
She wanted everything, he said, and
she got it. She forced Shaffer to sell
out the candy store and go into the
grocery business and later into wall
paper hanging. In all these ventures
she made money which she collected
and invested to suit herself.
Now Shaffer, after twenty-five years
of submission, has awakened. He
asks the Court to enjoin his wife from
collecting rents and the lessees of
different properties from paying any
rent to her and to direct her to
transfer the titles of properties to
him together with all the shares of
building association stock in her
name.

ALA. LEGISEAEURE
MEETS WEDNESDAY
Extra Session on Railroad
Question.
MONTGOMERY, ALA., Nov. I.
(Special)—The Alabama Legislature
will convene in extra session Wed
nesday to consider the regulation of
railroad rates. At the last session a
reduction in passenger fares was or
dered, but the’ roads, generally, re
fused to put the rates in effect and
secured injunctions in the Federal
Courts. Gov. Comer then decided on
an extra session to devise laws to
force the roads into line.
A few days ago an agreement was
reached between the Southern and
Gov. Comer, as to a rate and provid
ing for the dismissal of all suits
arising under the lav/ which was
to have gone into effect Sept. 1, should
be dismissed and the bondsmen re
leased from all liability. Gov. Comer
has been much criticised for attempt
ing to usurp the legislative and judi
cial fields.
A bill providing for State prohibition
will also be introduced at the ses
sion.

SITUATION HAS
BEEN CLEARED
The following is an extract from a
circular on the financial situation sent
out by Middendorf Williams & Co,, of
Baltimore, who were closely collect
ed with John Skelton Williams’s con
trol of the Seaboard:
No one ever fears what he can see
clearly before him; it is the unseen,
the mysterious which causes trem
ulousness, in the same way the great
public should have little fear now
that evil and corruption has been
uncovered and brought to light. Many
persons are dubious now about life
insurance because of the startling dis
closures of a few years back; but
the snake was not only scotched but
killed and there is no just cause for
hesitancy now; the time to hesitate
was before the evil was rooted out
and buried in a dishonored grave, not
after.
And the same should hold true of
the whole railway, corporate and
banking situation—certainly the in
terests of investors, stockholders and
bondholders, of the community at
large, are safer now that the worst is
known about rebates and discrimina
tions, about secret corrupt practices,
about Standard Oil, about Harriman,
about Morse and Heinze, even if there
is a “worst” to know, surely the in
terests of the country are better safe
guarded because of the activities of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
and the various State Commissions
than before the various disclosures of
the last year or so or the creation of
the broader Interstate tribunal.
Certainly this much is true: the
situation is just so much clearer, so
much freer from any suspicion or
taint in proportion to the wrongdoing
or wrong thinking uncovered and
placed in the limelight even if not
punished; for few men will venture
to do in the open market place what
they dare do in secret hiding places.
Every weak spot that is discovered
and strengthened adds just so much
to the underlying strength of the
whole business, commercial, industrial
and financial structure and in propor
tion to the number of wrongdoers
brought to justice, public confidence
should be the more thorough -
tored.
